Pastelaria Versailles

Pastelaria Versailles is a confectionery store in Avenidas Novas featuring polished marble counters, painted wall panels, and ornate mirrors throughout its spacious interior. The decor reflects the classic style of a well-established pastry shop from the early 20th century.

The shop was established in 1922 during the expansion of Lisbon when Avenidas Novas was being developed as a modern district for the city's wealthy residents. This timing meant the business opened alongside other new establishments that served this growing affluent neighborhood.

The place embodies Portuguese pastry traditions that remain visible in how customers gather here for coffee and sweets as part of their daily routine. The way people use this space for casual moments reflects its role in the neighborhood's social life.

The shop opens early in the morning and stays open into the evening, making it easy to visit at different times of day. You can find options for breakfast, lunch, and afternoon tea whenever suits your schedule best.

A Spanish pastry chef named Mariano Rey trained in Madrid's royal kitchens created the original recipes that still define the shop's pastry selection today. His signature duchess pastries show how techniques from Madrid became part of Lisbon's baking heritage.
